S4 EP102: Emma Maidment: Homebirth/"Big" baby

Today’s episode features the transformational journey of "The Flow Lane" podcast host, yoga and meditation teacher, Emma. Emma and her fiancé knew from early on that they wanted to dive deep into their healing and spiritual work before conceiving their first child. Although their planned conception happened sooner than anticipated, like the motto Emma lives by, she softened into the season upon her. After a challenging first trimester, Emma used the remainder of her pregnancy to immerse herself in birth literature and her wellness practices; feeling in full alignment with their birth preferences as they found a hands-off midwife who held space for her to step into her own power and intuition. Emma entered the birth realm in complete trust and patience for the journey ahead. Today we hear how chasing down a beach umbrella naturally induced her labour, and the moment she felt the spirit of her sacred sisterhood and ancestors surround her as she transcended to the stars. >>> Head to www.flowstatescollective.com and use code: positivebirth for 10% off Emma's prenatal and motherhood offerings.Show Links:Instagram: @emmamaidment_ @flowstatescollectiveMidwife: @midwifelibbylambPodcast: The Flow LaneOfferings: The Thriving Mama Club, Flow Baby - Prenatal YogaBooks: Rhea Dempsey, Dr Sarah BuckleyMentioned in this episode:Positive Birth Australia Birth Affirmations Tracks Available Now!Did you know that studies have shown affirmations can significantly boost self-esteem and reduce stress?
